I was waiting for that ;-) To be just slightly more constructive, the least invasive way of querying the API for new data only without changing the code would be to make multi-GETs for batches of object IDs just above the highest known object ID. That would probably not disrupt services if done by one user, but then if one user is allowed to do it, what can we say if 10 others wanted to do the same? Probably the best way to have a live feed - and a technique that has been discussed on dev about two years ago - would be to have the rails code log all successful database operations into a file which could then be retrieved by an independent daemon and fed into whatever distribution network you want. That would be about the same thing that database replication does, just on a higher level.
